Coronation Street - Current Episode Discussion - IV

[GloriaW]

I liked the scenes at the steam museum with Steve, Roy, Amy and even Tracey

Pimp Steve looked funny

I was hoping Fiz after all her concern for Roy would at least offer him stay at her and Tyrone's house for a while

Missed the episode but not surprised about Fiz. She's much more interested in being in self righteous, obsessive mode.

I too was really surprised that after all the fuss over Roy's disappearance, they all just up and left him alone at the cafe without a word. It was a strange about-turn

Steve, Tracy and Amy at the museum were really funny. Loved Amy getting one over on her parents, and the fact that Steve was in no hurry to take his costume off

That little girl, Elle Mulvaney, is proving to be an excellent actress. Her predecessor, Amber Chadwick, had to be replaced because she couldn't handle the bigger storylines. Watch that kid. She may wind up giving Alex Bain, Simon, a run for his money.

What utter tosh the way Dennis left Rita with Gloria ... Rita is better off without him!

Very unrealistic storyline. They will soon run out of money.

At this point I think he did her a favor. This character has become so loathsome and Rita remains one of our great, iconic Corrie figures that it's insulting for her to remain with the likes of him.

Can someone explain what that little scenario between Dennis, Rita and Gloria was meant to achieve. Completely pointless waste of airtime. Their was no storyline need for Dennis to go back to Rita, or for that matter for Rita to have him back. Dennis and Gloria could have just gone off together. At least that would have left Rita with a bit of dignity. So annoying , particularly when the scriptwriters have time to be a little more creative imo.

I think one point is that they don't[/B][/I] have the time. Soaps are notorious for their tight shooting schedules which result in a lot of the inadequacies we complain about; acting, direction, writing, etc.
